'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Go First Class All the Way

So right away, the intro to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills sets up that it's going to be a little . . . off. The women have cheesy voiceovers saying: "the sun always shines in Beverly Hills, but not on everyone," "everything might look perfect, but it's not. It's a land of make-believe!" and "this town runs on status, status can come from money, connections, fame, or even looks." And by looks, they must mean lips. It reminds me a lot of a promotional Barbie video I had when I was a kid. It was about going into "Barbie's World" and seeing all the cool stuff she got to do. So I guess The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills isn't so different from Barbie's World. They all kind of look like they're from the same mold.

Another weird thing is the theme song, there's just glitter, dogs, and no kids. Are there no kids in Beverly Hills? And really they all kind of look the same except two of them have brown hair and one of the brunettes has a British accent. But they're holding DIAMONDS!
